MK’s Facebook Post Explains Tzfat Pool Controversy

MK Nitzan Horovitz posted on his Facebook page in response to the current fight for a Tzfat country club pool to open on the Sabbath and Jewish holidays. Horovitz (Meretz) wrote that political powers are abusing the pool conflict in an attempt to gain control and power.

Horovitz wrote, “In a single, holy city, where all the residents are pure, an evil man opened a horrendous facility which is kidnapping the city’s holy inhabitants and leading them to sin…”

Other voices in favor of the pool being open on the Sabbath and holidays made the claim that the city is free and its inhabitants should be free to make their own decisions as well.
